[edit] Birth

Everything's begun in 1988 when X-FUSION used his legendary Commodore C=64 for combining electronic sounds with organ-sequences and vinyl-elements. Two years later his C64 was detached by Amiga 500, developing to 4 tracks and 8 bit.

X-FUSION was born !

[edit] Evolution

1991 his first demo tape called “Syndromic Noise“ was made. In the following year X-FUSION extended the equipment with his first own synthesizer – the Kawai K4 – and his style of music finally got a designation. During that period the second demo-tape was created and could be defined as Hardtrance. 1993 was a very eventful year for X-FUSION.

At several gigs at techno-parties such as the Innovation Rave (Fantasy/Dülmen) he showed his abilities live in front of almost 2000 fans. Not least X-FUSION extended his equipment again with the second synthesizer Roland JD800.
The following year brought up another three demos until 1997 when the Amiga 500 was replaced by a PC. X-FUSION's style of music evolved into the style of techno/acid/house just to the year 2000 when his first tracks including vocals were produced.

[edit] Maturity

Because music was always a method for X-FUSION to express his emotions, it was a small wonder that his style got more atmospheric and became more dusky, at least because X-FUSION always had an inclination for dark sounds in private. Also by using vocals he got the possibility of expressing his deepest feelings lyrically. 2001 and 2002 two ebm-shaped demos „EVILLIVE“ and „BLACKOUT EP“ were produced. Because of those X-FUSION signed his first label-deal at the Indie-Label DARK DIMENSIONS/SCANNER in the following year and his first official album „DIAL D FOR DEMONS“ was released. Nearly one year later (2004) the second album came out -„BEYOND THE PALE “, which immediately entered the alternative charts.
